Now that one of the projects I work on has switched to git and I'm trying 
(unsuccessfully) to learn it, I've started using GitHub Desktop on my Mac, 
which has this feature. I may have modified several lines in a file, but GitHub 
Desktop gives me checkboxes for each line in the diff so that I can select 
which of them I want to commit. It's the one aspect of working with git that I 
prefer over svn so far.
